38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[m] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I guess I am more depressed than you. My test/exam result has been dropping. Friends are talking behind me. Bad quarrel with my mother. Bad relationship with my father. I just lost the 'Top in level' position for a particular subject to someone else. Everything seem empty to me now. When in class, i envy those couples. When at home, I could only face the piles of homework and assessment books. All my life, in prime stage, has been a slave for homeworks/tests/exams. I feel like I am nobody. I feel like dying but I told myself to be strong. I am exhausted, physically and mentally.

When I look into Your holiness
When I gaze into Your loveliness
When all things that surround become shadows
In the light of You
When I've found the joy of reaching Your heart
When my will become enthroned in Your love
When all things that suround become shadows
In the light of You
I worship You I worship You
The reason I live is to worship You

God dont need you to live FOR Him. God wants you to live WITH Him.Originally posted by davidche:Basically, i know that i shld live my life for God but, i i shld tire my self the whole day with my heart beat pumping like mad b4 a presentation to the judges just for cca points

Living a life with God, is also about prioritising what is important according to God's teachings through His Words.
At this point in time, which is more important ? Your exams or CCA ? How is the Lord speaking to you on this ? Have you been praying to Him and asking for His help ? -
There's nothing spiritual about this issue.
You just need Proper Prioritizing and Time management.
But if you need to go through it with prayer, nothing wrong also. -
ure wrong. I shld be liveing for god. I know god doesnt need me to live for him but that doesnt change the fact that im living for him.Originally posted by klydeer:God dont need you to live FOR Him. God wants you to live WITH Him.

All the church and cell group activities can become a burden. -
How about living with God ? Do you know what is the difference ?Originally posted by davidche:ure wrong. I shld be liveing for god. I know god doesnt need me to live for him but that doesnt change the fact that im living for him.
alrite, erm,.....exams r of course more important, but does that mean am not going for an CCA???
No problems, if you think am wrong, am wrong to you.
If you proclaim that exams are more important and that the CCA is affecting your studies, then should you not talk to your teacher about it ? I am sure your teahcer in charge of the CCA will appreciate you for taking this up with him/her, rather than seeking self-pity. -

You two are looking at different angle of Christian living.
These are personal experiences and conviction which each will bear as people encounter God differently. -
ok. i do have my doubts in an earlier post about living for God - with the example of striving so hard "for Him" in CCA. Saw "Danger !" in my mind, thats all.Originally posted by M©+square:He's not wrong, you're not wrong also.

"Though the fig tree may not blossom,
Nor fruit be on the vines....
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will joy in the God of my salvation.
The Lord God is my strength;
He will make my feet like deerÂ’s feet,
And He will make me walk on my high hills." Habakkuk 3:17-19
God bless you.
